Chapter 644: Really Good at Showing Off

As for Shi Lei, no one paid much attention to it. After all, it was just three scraps. If you go to the antique street, many people would probably be interested, but here, no one would pay any attention to a mere 400,000 scraps. .

But because Shi Lei had clearly hinted to Wei Qing not to buy the wood, Wei Qing still followed Shi Lei.

Seeing the young man helping Shi Lei open the two obviously unusual pieces of wood, Wei Qing asked in a low voice, "Do you know this stuff?"

Shi Lei smiled and said, "Let's take a look first. Among these three pieces of wood, this one is the most valuable, do you believe it?" Shi Lei shook the remaining piece of wood in his hand, which was no more than the thickness of an arm.

Wei Qing took it and looked at it, curled his lips and said: "Let's just make a string out of this one. With better luck, can we get a bracelet with four strings and two centimeters? He paid more than 20,000 for this one. Even then, The curved part can still be a bit fancy, it’s just a small piece at most, and the price he asks is quite accurate, you can earn tens of thousands or ten thousand by the end.”

The two-centimeter bracelets each have twelve beads, a total of forty-eight beads, and the total length has reached nearly one meter. And this piece of wood is 1.2 meters in total, so there is always some wasted part, which is basically close to the limit.

This is obviously because Wei Qing does not believe Shi Lei's judgment at all.

Shi Lei smiled and said nothing, just watching the young man pull out the two pieces of wood quickly.

There were no surprises. They were two relatively good pieces of wood, both of which were avocados. One of them had the popular spider pattern. Just based on this, it was a bit of a gamble.

Wei Qing smiled and said: "I have some use for these two. I think I can make some gadgets. I'll take the five hundred thousand for you."

Shi Lei waved his hand, of course he knew that Wei Qing deliberately gave a high price. With these two pieces, it was only over 400,000 yuan at best. If I think about it carefully after I go back and make two suitable things, I can sell them for five to six hundred thousand.

He handed the one-meter-two-meter-long piece of wood in his hand to the young man and warned: "Please be extra careful with this problem. The white skin may become thinner as you go to the top."

Wei Qing shook his head and said, "Don't think about it. How can the top be thicker than the bottom?"

Shi Lei rolled his eyes and said, "Are you sure that the abnormal part of the cross section is the bottom?"

Wei Qing was stunned when he said this, but the young man said: "Sir..." He spoke with a thick southern accent. It seemed that this young man should be from Qiongdao.

"Sir, this piece of wood must be at the bottom. It's turned around here, and it looks like another branch has grown."

After Wei Qing heard this, he looked at Shi Lei proudly, hoping to see how you would explain it now.

Shi Lei said with a smile: "Can thicker branches grow from thin branches?"

These words made the young man stunned. He suddenly slapped his thigh and said: "Oh, I understand. The curved part of this piece of wood is the thick branch, or even the trunk of the tree. But this tree may collapse." It’s not out of place. On the contrary, there is a little bit of gridding on this branch, so it was placed here. If the outlying interface is the branch tip, then this piece of wood is really likely to increase in value!"

Wei Qing also understood what Shi Lei meant and looked at him doubtfully, thinking to himself, could it really make Shi Lei make a fortune?

However, there is only such a small thing, which is a little thinner than a child's arm, and the trunk part is not out of bounds. What can be out of bounds here?

But Shi Lei remained silent again.

The young man was indeed a little more cautious, and slowly helped Shi Lei drive the piece of wood in little by little...

Soon, the grids in the wood were fully revealed. Although it had not been peeled off yet, the faint blue color of the purple avocado was already very obvious, and, as Shi Lei said, the further the wood went to the corner, the more it became. thick.

After most of the entire wood was peeled out, it was clearly visible.

The end of the cross section is the thinnest, and it is estimated to be less than two centimeters when rounded. However, it gets thicker as it goes up. When it reaches the corner that has not yet been peeled off, it has reached about five centimeters, which can be used as a health ball.

Although they are still scraps, but of this size, they are blue and oily purple avocados. Just a pair of health balls that are close to five centimeters is enough to exceed the price of more than 20,000 yuan in the market. There are also If you can produce a few bracelets, they will definitely be more than doubled.

But even so, it wasn't much money, and he didn't know why Shi Lei felt that this piece of wood was more valuable than the previous two pieces.

The young man was carefully peeling off the white skin at the corner. First, he cut a little bit inward at the top, about half a centimeter. When he opened it, all he could see was a blue pattern.

"Hey, it's really out of line. It's a bit thick. It's seven or eight centimeters..." The young man said in surprise, and then peeled off the white skin more carefully.

After a few minutes, the white skin was completely peeled off, and a purple avocado with a length of fifteen centimeters and a diameter of eight centimeters was fully displayed in front of Shi Lei and Wei Qing.

Shi Lei said proudly: "How about it? Is it worth making a statue of Guan Gong or Guanyin from this section than these two? Look at the oiliness, the pattern, and the luster. You can see the luster even before polishing. .”

Wei Qing's eyes widened and he cursed: "You're so stupid! Are you going to cut this thing off and make it a decoration? This is just a natural faucet crutch! In this way, five hundred thousand, no, no, no, eight One hundred thousand, I want it!"

Shi Lei was stunned and quickly understood, yes, isn't this just a cane with a dragon head? The fifteen centimeter long and seven to eight centimeter diameter part is just enough to carve a dragon head. If the carver is better, you can carve a moving bead in the dragon's mouth. And the whole piece of wood, not just one piece, only needs A cane that needs polishing and no processing at all?

In general crutches, the faucet part and the main body of the crutch are separated, especially this kind of crutch made of precious mahogany. But this one is a natural crutch, and it is a purple avocado with such good oiliness and such wonderful patterns. After it is processed, it can be sold for one million people.

"Is it more valuable than those two?!" Shi Lei suddenly realized and smiled.

"Shi Lei, how did you see that?" Wei Qing grabbed Shi Lei and whispered, "Just now you told me not to buy it because that one didn't work?"

Shi Lei nodded slightly and said: "The fourth one from the right, the one with a cross-section of about thirty centimeters, can be purchased. Not surprisingly, the entire length is of this thickness. Also, the one in Lu Xiaoming's hand Of those two, the one with better quality must have failed, but the remaining one has another mystery."

"Are you sure?!" Although Wei Qing still couldn't believe it, the natural dragon-headed crutch in his hand made him disbelief.

The conversation between the two also attracted the people who were looking at the whole wood over there. They all saw the piece of wood in Wei Qing's hand. Of course, these people's vision was no worse than Wei Qing's. They immediately knew that Shi Lei's vision was The seemingly inconspicuous wood has increased in value, and it is a rare big increase. After all, something bought for more than 20,000 yuan can be sold for one million in a blink of an eye. The price of the whole wood here is only about one million.

The owner of the goods also came over and looked at the natural crutch with a wry smile on his face: "Master Shi really has good eyesight, and you can see this. Congratulations, your bet has gone up."

Shi Lei smiled and said, "It's just good luck, haha."

Wei Qing pouted at the side, thinking that he really knew how to show off.

The fourth guaranteed update, there is another chapter at the end, don’t miss it
